Menzies Aviation Secures 15-Year Ground Handling License at Bengaluru Airport

  • Menzies Aviation has been awarded a 15-year license by BIAL to provide ground handling services at Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru.
  • The new license, effective April 1, 2026, expands Menzies' existing cargo operations to include passenger, ramp, and baggage services across Terminals 1 and 2.
  • This development follows the termination of Çelebi Airport Services' contract due to national security concerns, with Menzies joining Air India SATS and GlobeGround India.
  • Menzies plans to invest over US$9.2 million in modernizing ground support equipment, including electric GSE, and recruit approximately 1,000 new staff.
  • The partnership aims to enhance operational efficiency, support Bengaluru airport's growth, and align with global safety and sustainability standards.
